Just lowered -- still seems high

AFtriathlete · May 23rd, 2008, 03:39 PM

I just put on the Eiback Pro Kit, Bilstein HD shocks/struts, and replaced the front/rear sprint isolators with urethane ones. It doesn't look any lower -- does it take a little while for it to settle out? A guy I know that has a camaro said his didn't really look any lower for a couple weeks.

The Pro Kit is a subtle drop. Its kinda hard to see right after ya first do it. Go find another stang and park beside it and you will see a big differennce. I was the same way right after I done my spring install I was like WTF! I DID look just a BIT lower but after I seen my car sitting much lower than other stangs that I was parked near I could tell a big diff. The pic in my sig was taken like 20 mins after I done my spring install too btw.

springs take about a week to fully settle.

Just load your car with some fat chicks and it'll surely drop a few inches

WLJohnson05 · June 24th, 2008, 02:33 AM

proof enough?
both cars 18 inch wheels...left is stock and right in eibach pro kit

TurboLX · June 24th, 2008, 02:56 AM

thats low

goren813 · June 25th, 2008, 11:55 AM

I put the prokit on my '00 v6 and it definately lowered it the stated 1.5". It's real noticeable in the front, with the back riding a little higher, which is the stance I prefer. The drop on mine was full after the first test drive the night I put them in, they should fully settle within a week or so depending how ofter you drive.

PapaSmurf · June 25th, 2008, 03:26 PM

Another reason why it might sit so high is you installed the polyurathane isolators. Those things are thick and if you remove them and put your stockers on them instead youll notice more of a difference. I would completely get rid of the front ones.

Rico-mofos · June 25th, 2008, 03:39 PM

anyone know if FRP c springs are more or less of a drop than Eibach pros?

less. the prokit drops approx 1.5" rear and 1.2" front and the c springs drop approx 1-1.25" all around

patwrecked · June 27th, 2008, 04:28 AM

would it be bad to take out the rear isolators

Roos85 · July 10th, 2008, 12:22 AM

That one looks lowered alot more than 1.5". Just give it some time to settle in before you take the iso's out. I wouldnt. It will ride like shit
